 On the occasion of the World Day of the Sick, which will take place on February 11, 2007, the Catholic Organization for Life and Family (COLF) has published a new leaflet entitled “Living, Suffering and Dying…what for?” 

This reflection responds to the ongoing debate in Canadian society about the legalization of euthanasia and assisted suicide. The new publication walks the reader through a powerful contemplation of one of life’s greatest mysteries: pain and suffering. It reveals their profound Christian meaning and instills a renewed sense of hope, courage and peace.
